    Recalls for 2017 BMW Diesel

    2017 BMW X3
    NHTSA Campaign ID:CHILD SEAT:VEHICLE LATCH ANCHOR
    Manufacturer:BMW of North America, LLC
    Manufacture Dates:07/02/2010 - 04/14/2016
    Potential Units Affected:188668

    Defect Description:

    BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain model year 2011-2017, X3 sDrive28i, X3 xDrive28i and X3 xDrive35i, vehicles manufactured July 2, 2010 to April 14, 2016, 2015-2017 X3 xDrive28d vehicles manufactured March 10, 2014 to March 31, 2016, and 2015-2017 x4 xDrive28i, X4 xDrive35i and X4 xDriveM40i vehicles manufactured March3, 2014 to April 15, 2016. The affected vehicles have lower anchor bars for securing child restraint seats that may become damaged when using the European-ISOFIX-type, rigid-style connector, child restraint system.

    Consequence:

    Damaged lower anchor bars may increase the child's risk of injury in the event of a crash.

    Action:

    BMW will notify owners, and dealers will weld a reinforcing bracket to the lower anchor bars and the vehicle body, free of charge. The recall began on July 13, 2016. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
    2017 BMW X3
    NHTSA Campaign ID:STEERING:ELECTRIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM
    Manufacturer:BMW of North America, LLC
    Manufacture Dates:06/07/2016 - 06/07/2016
    Potential Units Affected:103

    Defect Description:

    BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling one model year 2017 BMW X3 xDrive 28i vehicle manufactured on June 7, 2016. This vehicle has electronic power steering (EPS), and the contact pins on the EPS control unit may not have been welded properly resulting in increased resistance.

    Consequence:

    An increase in pin contact resistance can increase the risk of a fire, even while the vehicle is parked and ignition is off.

    Action:

    The vehicle was repaired at the dealership before sale. Therefore, an owner notification notice will not be issued for this campaign. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
    2017 BMW X3
    NHTSA Campaign ID:ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL:GAS RECIRCULATION VALVE (EGR VALVE)
    Manufacturer:BMW of North America, LLC
    Manufacture Dates:02/17/2014 - 12/21/2016
    Potential Units Affected:44368

    Defect Description:

    BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2013-2018 BMW 328d and 328d xDrive, 2014-2018 328d Sports Wagon and 328d xDrive Sports Wagon, 2014-2016 535d and 535d xDrive, 2015 740Ld xDrive, 2015-2017 X3 xDrive28d SAV and 2014-2017 X5 xDrive35d SAV vehicles equipped with an Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) module with an integrated cooler. If the EGR cooler leaks internally, the coolant can mix with diesel engine soot. The high EGR temperatures may result in these particles possibly smoldering and melting the intake manifold.

    Consequence:

    The melting intake manifold can increase the risk of a fire.

    Action:

    BMW will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the EGR cooler as necessary. If a leak has already occurred, the engine intake manifold will also be replaced. These repairs will be made free of charge. The recall began May 13, 2019. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
    2017 BMW X5
    NHTSA Campaign ID:AIR BAGS:PASSENGER SIDE FRONTAL
    Manufacturer:BMW of North America, LLC
    Manufacture Dates:02/18/2017 - 03/01/2017

    Defect Description:

    BMW of North America, Inc. (BMW) is recalling certain 2017 X5 sDrive35i, X5 xDrive35i, X5 xDrive50i, X5 xDrive35d, and X5 xDrive40e vehicles. These vehicles are equipped with passenger frontal air bag modules using certain air bag inflators that may not vent properly in the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger frontal air bag.

    Consequence:

    Manufacture Dates:05/07/2013 - 06/19/2017
    Potential Units Affected:44368

    Defect Description:

    BMW of North America, LLC (BMW) is recalling certain 2013-2018 BMW 328d and 328d xDrive, 2014-2018 328d Sports Wagon and 328d xDrive Sports Wagon, 2014-2016 535d and 535d xDrive, 2015 740Ld xDrive, 2015-2017 X3 xDrive28d SAV and 2014-2017 X5 xDrive35d SAV vehicles equipped with an Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) module with an integrated cooler. If the EGR cooler leaks internally, the coolant can mix with diesel engine soot. The high EGR temperatures may result in these particles possibly smoldering and melting the intake manifold.

    Consequence:

    The melting intake manifold can increase the risk of a fire.

    Action:

    BMW will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the EGR cooler as necessary. If a leak has already occurred, the engine intake manifold will also be replaced. These repairs will be made free of charge. The recall began May 13, 2019. Owners may contact BMW customer service at 1-800-525-7417.
